In this family-friendly
comedy drama,
Walter (
Haley Joel Osment) is a shy and bookish boy just short of his teens whose mother impulsively decides to leave him for the summer with his eccentric grand-uncles,
Hub (
Robert Duvall) and
Garth (
Michael Caine).
Walter isn't especially happy about being left in the middle of Texas with two old men, while
Hub and
Garth aren't too pleased to be stuck minding a boy, especially one who isn't accustomed to hunting, fishing, or firearms. When
Walter starts hearing local gossip about his uncles' wild and wooly pasts, he begins asking a few questions, and while
Hub and
Garth don't enjoy having the boy poking into their pasts, as they start telling tales of their youthful adventures, they find themselves itching for some new adventures in their lives. Soon
Walter is a semi-willing accomplice as his elderly guardians rediscover the wild, impulsive spirit of youth.
Secondhand Lions was produced in part by the well-respected visual effects house
Digital Domain, who also helped create the imagery for the film's flashback sequences.
